Academy providing people with skills to start a new professional chapter
In response to business disruptions due to COVID-19, Vendasta has launched an online training program to help entrepreneurs build a successful digital agency from their own homes.
The launch of Conquer Local Academy comes as the U.S. Labor Department reported Thursday that the unemployment rate hit 13 percent, the worst since the Great Depression. Meanwhile, Canada shed more than one million jobs last month, according to Statistics Canada.
